Analytics

Bytes analytics help you understand how your links and QR codes are being used.

What Bytes tracks

Depending on the link and available data, Bytes may show:

  • Total clicks
  • Unique visitors
  • Referrers
  • Devices
  • Browsers
  • Countries or regions
  • Time-based activity

Clicks and QR scans

A QR scan usually becomes a link visit once the person opens the URL behind the QR code.

Bytes treats that visit as link activity so printed material can be measured alongside online sharing.

Why numbers may differ

Bytes analytics may differ from Google Analytics, social platforms or email tools because each platform measures activity differently. Some tools filter bots differently, some count previews, and some use different attribution windows.

Use Bytes as the source of truth for activity on your Bytes short links and QR codes.
